lyrics

Shake off the Drama

You used to be so innocent
When you had no money or success
Now you hardly laugh
Take yourself so serious

You painted your apartment white
To hide the darkening of your soul
Fill it up with frenemies
Call me up when they go

Shake Shake off the drama
You don’t need it
Look, Look at the blessings on your ceiling
Shake Shake off the drama
I got a feeling
Your losing at being a winner
Shake Shake Shake

Remember all those New York nights
We were young and full of wonder
A small boy and a mixed up girl
All we had was each other

Shake Shake off the drama
You don’t need it
Look, look at the rainbow on your ceiling
Shake, shake off the drama
I got a feeling
Your winning at being a loser
Shake Shake Shake

Stars and planets circling round your big fat head
Gonna knock you down
Dancing in the Limelight
Shake Shake Shakin like killer bees
Staying up til sunrise
Shake Shake Shakin with the Linden trees

Shake Shake off the drama
You don’t need it
Look, look at the angel on your ceiling
Shake, shake off the drama
I got a feeling
Your winning at being a loser
Shake Shake Shake
